I have a question about possible bugs with backgrounder/printmonitor in 
multifinder. The problem we encounter with our Laserwriter II NT and
printing seems to be related to it. In printing longer documents (10
pages or more it seems that only a portion of the document will be 
printed, and the rest does not. One person had a 10 page document, and
only 8 pages would print, he resubmitted the last pages several times
still no printing. Then exiting the program print monitor asked if the rest
of his print job was wanted, and then it printed.
 
My problem occurs with real long documents. I have a 100+ page manuscript.
I try to print the whole thing out, and will get 20 to 30 pages, then nothing.
The light on the printer is still flashing, but after 5 minutes I get a 
message that I have a printer error, and asks if I want to terminate the job.
 
The problem occurs with either Word or Wordperfect. In the first example 
when background printing was turned off the problem went away. I did not 
try this for the longer document, but suspect that the problem would go
away also.
 
My question is then, is this a known bug in backgrounder/printmonitor. If so
I guess I will have to leave this part of multifinder turned off????
 
Any ideas or help would be appreciated.
